Danvers, MA Foundation & Concrete Repair Company

A homeowner in Danvers, Massachusetts, has lived in the home for the past 30 years. They normally repair issues with their home when they pop up but this crack in their foundation wall has been around for a couple of years. The crack in the wall has started to occasionally leak so the homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection. Our Design Specialist John inspected the crack and recommended sealing the crack with Flexispan.

Our installation team began by cleaning the crack so we could install our membrane over it to prevent any water from coming into the basement. After the membrane was set, the team used a jackhammer to make a small funnel in the slab/wall to allow water to pass through and flow under the home. After the concrete was chipped out, the team covered the membrane on the wall and then filled and poured new concrete to where we chipped out. Now any water that travels into that crack will be directed beneath the home installed or into the basement. 

The homeowners were very pleased with the results of the project. The homeowners no longer have to worry about the crack leaking. 

A homeowner in Danvers, Massachusetts, had water coming into their basement for some time now. They have plans to finish their basement but the constant water entering the basement has been deterring them from starting the project. The homeowner determined they should fix the water issue before finishing the basement. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their basement. Our Design Specialist recommended installing a full perimeter drainage system, BrightWall, and a SaniDry Sedona into the basement. 

Our installation team began by chipping out concrete for our WaterGuard and a basin for our TripleSafe. The team chipped out the entire perimeter of the basement, which was 116'. Next, the team installed the TripleSafe and plumbed it outside where we installed an IceGuard and an exterior drainage line to carry water away from the home. The team then tested the pump and then began installing BrightWall on the foundation walls. The team installed the 116' of BrightWall before the WaterGuard so any water from the wall would enter the perimeter drainage system. After the team installed the BrightWall to the foundation wall, the team then installed the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Next, the team performed a water test on the WaterGuard to make sure the water will enter the system and make its way to the TripleSafe in the corner of the basement. After the full system was tested, the team then mixed up some concrete and covered the WaterGuard and around the basin on the TripleSafe to finish up the project. 

The homeowners were very happy with the results of the project and now were confident to start the process of finishing their basement. 

Philip V. of Danvers, MA has grandchildren that come around and swim in their pool. Over the past 5-10 years the homeowner has noticed the concrete deck around the pool has been sinking. Each year has been getting worse and worse. The homeowner is worried that their grandkids might trip and hurt themselves. The homeowner decided to call Erickson Foundation Solutions about a free inspection. 

Design Specialist Kenny Calabrese came to the home and inspected the concrete deck. Kenny confirmed what the homeowner had been seeing over the past 5-10 years. Kenny proposed that EFS use PolyLevel to lift the parts of the pool deck that have sunk over the years. 

Crew Lead Nick Melo and Installation Specialist Tyler Oslizlo arrived at the home and began injecting PolyLevel into the pool deck. The crew was able to lift the outside of the pool deck about 1" to eliminate the tripping hazard. Philip is relieved to have a safe pool area for the grandkids.
